and vehicles prescribed in the Tables of Organization, the equipment 
and clothing worn on the person, and the articles carried on mount,

tion, instruction, or maneuver camps, and during such pauses in opera- 
tions against an enemy as permit the better care of troops. 

Equipment ''C" is the sum of equipments "A" and "B." 

Garrison equipment is the equipment prescribed for use in garrison. 

2. Unit accountahilitii equipment and accountabiliti/ therefor. — The unit 
accountability equipments of the various organizations will consist 
of the articles of "'A" and "B " equipm.ent prescribed in the unit account- 
ability manuals for the atrength authorized and will be accounted for by

3. Accountability and responsibility for other Government property. — 
All garrison equipment and other Government property in the hands 
of organization commanders, except that held under unit accounta- 
bility, will be held on memorandum receipts from the various post, 
regimental, or other designated supply officers, who will render to the 
chiefs of the staff departments concerned returns as at present for all 
property for which they are accountable. 

4. In this revised manual the unit accountability equipment for the 
present authorized minimum and maximum strengths is given in Part I . 
In Part II are given the sets of individual arms and e(|uipment of unit 
accountability equipment by which any increase or decrease in equip- 
ment corresponding to any authorized increase or decrease in strength 
may be readily determined and expressed. 

5. Upon receipt of this manual organization commanders will immedi- 
ately adjust tneir (unit) accountability by turning in to the proper 
supply officer all surplus articles on hand and supplying the deficiencies 
by requisition, so that the articles on hand of unit accountability equip- 
ment of their respective organizations will conform to the number author- 
ized in this manual with the least practicable delay. All such adjust- 
ments will be covered by exchange of regular invoices and receipts . 

6. In Part III of this revised manual is listed the garrison equipment 
for the present authorized minimum and maximum strengths. 

By order of the Secretary of War.
